Think about this case:

I have a company seanco it owns a training company called seantraining. If
you pay lots of money for training and pass all the exams that
seantraining provide then I will get you a job. Would it surprise you to
know that seanco also owns a company called seancomputersupport?
seancomputersupport always has vacancies because it has so many new staff
who are poorly trained that they have to be sacked quite soon after being
taken on. A few of them will actually struggle through everything and make
the grade but they probably would anyway.

I get emails from ex-students who struggle to get a job and fall for
similar schemes. One ended up swapping monitors and printers after all his
expensive training. He got sacked after a couple of months because the
manager said he didn't fit in with the team.
